Re: 12.1.0 trac milestone organisation
On 03/15/2012 05:15 PM, Daniel Drake wrote: Hi, In recent release cycles, the trac milestone on http://dev.laptop.org for each release has been disorganised and (for that reason) of limited use - many more tickets in the milestone that the team would have time to attack. In the 11.3.0 cycle I saw that I was not the only one affected by this - it makes things especially hard for those who don't spend as many hours tracking the release progress as the rest of us. So for 12.1.0 I would like to change this by myself dedicating more time to keeping things clean and managed within the 12.1.0 milestone. I'm proposing that we experiment with the following, which is what I wrote at http://wiki.laptop.org/go/12.1.0/Release_plan : In recent release cycles, the release milestone in trac has become a bit of a dumping ground for ideas-of-the-minute and miscellaneous bugs (e.g. bugs not related to current development efforts). As such the milestone's bug listing has been of limited value and hard to utilise by those who do not work on the release specifics every day. In this release cycle, the release manager will attempt to improve on this situation with the following measures: - All bugs in the milestone will have a correct and accurate assignee who understands the responsibility to work on the issue according to the schedule in this release plan. - The release manager will triage incoming bugs roughly according to the following criteria: - - Regressions caused by work in this release cycle will be included in the milestone and assigned accordingly - - All other tickets will be triaged into Future Release (for things we want, but will not necessarily commit to working on it immediately) and Opportunity (for nice-to-haves). - - All tickets triaged to Future Release and Opportunity will have at least 1 core release team member as assignee or CC. This way, any bad triaging decisions can be raised and discussed in the weekly release meeting. - Developers are welcome to take tickets from Future Release and Opportunity milestones and move them into the release milestone, as and when they have time available to dedicate to such work. - The resultant succinct, clean ticket listing in the milsetone will be useful for release management, allowing for early identification of release blockers, easy progress tracking, and lets us easily see that nobody is overloaded with work.

Known issue, hopefully should be fixed before long - Midori for GNOME, Surf for Sugar included as browsers.

If I click on the shared bookmark it is opened in Browse. So a regression. - there is a funny drawing error when you switch to another view while the pdf is loading (see screenshot where the status alert is drawn in the neighborhood view) (os8 on a 1.5) Same in 11.2.0.

Context-information is great for translation. In this example, 'volume'
as hint was not particularly helpful to me, since this has at least two
very different meanings in German. 'clipboard' on the other hand was
clear anyway since the source-hint says something about clipboard-menu.
Maybe the text should be more verbose. How about: 'remove item from
clipboard' and 'eject the external device'
One type of content-information I'd appreciate a lot would be about the
function/type of text this is: Is it e.g. a button lable, a menu entry,
a help text, ...
How would that be done, as well with msgctxt using pgettext? Or are
there other ways? In general that would be a bigger effort and would
need to define a few guidelines for that but can be done of course if
the translator community thinks this would help a lot.

[ANNOUNCE] 0.94 schedule update: still on track
Hi,
we are still on track in our 0.94 development cycle [1]. The release is
three weeks away from now, we plan to release the 28th of September!
We have been entering string freeze now, which means: No string changes
may be made without confirmation from the localization team and
notification to the release team [2]. This freeze is meant to help the
translators finish their work and to not provide them with a moving
target. Now is the time we will see a lot of commits from our great
translators community, Activity developers please watch out for those
and do make releases to make that work available.
There have been one interesting string change in the last week: there
are two entries in the sugar.po that translate the same string
('Remove') but where the context is different. This has been marked now
using pgettext. Chris has pulled that change to Pootle and all langs
sugar.po have been refreshed. An example can be seen at [3][4]. Please
give feedback if that addition was helpful to do a better translation or
if anything can be improved.
Manuel is currently working on polishing up the tabbing experience in
Browse. There is one string change and a significant UI change [5]. Both
need to be discussed following the exception process [6].
So what's left to be done besides translating?
Right, bug fixing and testing!
I have been listing Features and changes on the pre-release-notes [7]
which should give a good sense of the bigger changes that needs testing.
General functionality testing like (networking, saving etc) are of
course welcome. I will add a list as well of the bugs we fixed so
potential regressions in those areas can be identified. Watch out for
more details here. There are instructions on the page as well how to
test and where to file bugs.
Three more weeks to go, let's make this a rock-solid, innovative and
fun-to-use release.

Gtk3 Hackfest, Praha 2011, news updates
Hi, two major changes have recently occurred in Sugar's underlying technologies. Firstly, GTK+ 2 has been obsoleted by GTK+ 3, and GNOME is now based on GTK+ 3. Secondly, PyGTK, the underlying Python library that Sugar uses to call into GTK+, has been deprecated in favor of PyGObject Introspection (hereafter PyGI).

Help testing Sugar 0.93.x
Hi, we have been landing the features targeted at 0.94 and are currently in the phase of fixing bugs related to those features and other changes introduced by recent code changes [1]. I have been starting to create notes about the Features and changes that have been made [2]. Those will evolve over time but should give you a good first impression about the recent additions and changes. There are two olpc builds that contain the latest changes os3 [3] for the i686 architecture (XO 1 and XO 1.5) and os41 [4] for the new ARM hardware. It would be great if people with those hardware (or sugar-jhbuild or Fedora 16) could help testing so that we are able to fix bugs in time. Bugs related to Sugar and activities should be filed under [5], bugs that are related to the new 1.75 hardware (or that are specific to the XO hardware) should be filed at [6]. Please make sure to note as well the build version and hardware you are using for testing in the bug report. Please stay tuned for new builds that will be announced on those lists.

Today other collaboration tools allow not only collaboration to stop but also who and how to collaborate. I can see many scenarios in and out of a class that may need that feature and I'm actually surprised is not(?) brought up by any deployment yet. Actually, I happened to think about it yesterday. Of course the 'unshare' functionality this adds a bit more complexity to the issue, which I think is the main reason why it is not handled as of today. At the moment, what you do when you want to stop a shared session is that you close the activity. So activities at the moment have to be aware of that fact and should be able to handle those cases cleanly (person who joined/the person who started the shared session are leaving). However, for 'unshare' you have to handle as well this case, the activity state change, in your activity and this might be a bit trickier, or at least adds more complex code.

What would be the preferred place to put 'olpc' in the rpm name? Between
the distribution version and the 'arch'? Like:
Version: 0.92.0
Release: 1%{?dist}.olpc
sugar-0.92.0-1.fc14.olpc.noarch.rpm
And another check could be to make sure there is a srpm available for
each package.

[ANNOUNCE] OLPC OS 10.1.3 final release
Dear olpc community, we are very pleased to announce build os860 as the final 10.1.3 release build for XO-1 and XO-1.5 laptops! This is an update to software release 10.1.2 that fixes important bugs and includes some new improvements (listed at the bottom of this mail). The release is based on Fedora 11 and contains the latest Sugar 0.84 and the GNOME desktop. The full release notes can be found at [1]. Instructions for installing the release on an XO can be found at [2]. Many thanks to everyone -- testers, translators, documenters, developers and others -- who contributed to this release! On behalf of the OLPCA-team, Simon [1] http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Release_notes/10.1.3 [2] http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Release_notes/10.1.3#Installation ==New features== ===Collaboration under a tree on XO-1.5=== We have significantly improved collaboration when XO-1.5 is used with no Access Points available (under a tree). The Neighborhood View now shows three default Ad-hoc networks (for channels 1, 6, and 11) in user-friendly icons, and XOs will auto-connect without user intervention. This behavior is similar to the mesh behavior on XO-1. ===Sharing/Backup Journal entries using a mass storage device=== You may now share Journal entries with another learner using a [[USB drive]] or SD card. The user experience is: Martin wants to give a picture he has been drawing to Simon. He plugs in his USB drive and copies the Journal entry on the drive. Simon plugs in Martin's drive in his laptop. The entry will be shown with Martin's XO color on the drive. Simon copies Martin's entry into his Journal. You can use this feature to backup Journal entries to a USB drive or SD card. ===Connect your XO to external projectors and monitors=== We have added support for USB2VGA adapters. You can now connect an XO to a projector over a USB2VGA adapter and project what is on your XO screen onto a screen or for many people to see. ===Screen Rotation on XO-1.5=== On XO-1.5 it is now possible to rotate the screen using the 'rotate' button. This allows learners to use the XO in ebook mode. ===Protected Activities Support=== In this build certain activities are protected from being deleted by accident. In the activity list in the home view the erase option is disabled for those. Protected activities are: Browse, Terminal, Log, Write, ImageViewer and Record. ===Better interaction between GNOME and Sugar=== Switching between Sugar and GNOME user interfaces is smoother. Changes of settings in GNOME now do not affect Sugar, and vice-versa. The ~/Activities directory is now hidden from the user in GNOME, to prevent accidental deletions that could harm Sugar. The networking settings are now synchronized so enabling/disabling networking is unified. Users can now change GNOME panels and fonts without risk of breaking GNOME -- invalid settings are reset on restart. The dialog to set a GNOME keyring password when connecting to a secure wireless network has been disabled. ===Browse=== A home button has been added into the Browse toolbar. The button returns to the home page, where important links are. A busy cursor has been added for when a page is loading. This was present in 8.2.1 but missing from 10.1.2. Finally, previews for downloaded images have been added, so that the Journal will show appropriate thumbnails of downloaded images. ===Paint=== The Paint activity has been improved a lot: * The cursor has been enhanced and realigned, * Text tool has been improved * New filters: invert colors and mirror effects * Tool size and shape are shown * Improvements to copy and paste ===Read=== Scrolling has been improved. The up and down directional keypad to the left of the XO display will now scroll, which is especially useful if the laptop is in ebook mode. Using the fn key with the up and down arrow keys will now scroll by page. ===Write=== You can now paste images into Write. Images can be copied from Browse, Paint or Write. You can now put images into tables and export to PDF. The style list has been reordered to place paragraph text styles before heading styles. ===Wikipedia=== Page loading has been sped up and several smaller fixes made. ===Scratch=== A new camera plugin adds importing from camera on XO-1. ===Activity Updates=== We included the latest versions of Calculate, Colors, Distance, Etoys, Help, InfoSlicer, Jukebox, Labyrinth, Memorize, Physics, Pippy, Turtle Art and Typing Turtle. ===System Lid Behavior=== When the lid is closed on the XO, the laptop will suspend its operations and turn off the screen. Historically re-opening the lid has turned on the screen and woken up the laptop for normal use. In order to avoid a problem where stacked XO units may accidentally turn each other back on, this wake-up behavior has been disabled. To wake up the laptop from suspend press the power button once. ___ Devel mailing list
10.1.3 Release Candidate --- build os860 for XO-1 and XO-1.5 (Signed by OLPC)

Besides looking fantastic, does it work well? ;-) Both 1.0's with both Startechs with both monitors: If the monitor is already turned on, and already plugged into the USB port on the XO 1.0 before cold boot, the external monitor becomes active and looks fantastic, most the time. This is the case on both the Sugar and Gnome boots. The most the time comes from : If I have plugged a different USB device into the port between boots, the XO 1.0 stalls at the 'third dot around the circle' during boot and flashes the external monitor. That is very strange. Can you elaborate on the a different usb device? Can you give us exact steps to repro? I have had absolutely no success in plugging any adapter with any monitor into any of the XO's after XO is up. LSUSB recognizes the adapter, but doesn't activate the external monitor. Correct. We cannot reconfigure while running. You can in some cases where the 2 video ports are on the same card and you have recent drivers. But not inserting a new video device as we do in this case. I have had no success in unplugging the adapter while the external monitor is active. The internal XO display does not come back active, and replugging the external adapter does not bring the external monitor back active. Oops, now need to Power off again. Please try this again -- the external monitor will take a few seconds but in my testing it does come back. Another little note, when the external becomes active when booting the Sugar desktop, the internal display goes blank, once the External goes active. When booting on the Gnome side, the internal display continues to display a sort of console output, but it remains static.

10.1.3 Testing page available
Hi, we have a page [1] available where you are invited to gather your 10.1.3 testing results. We hope to find out more quickly possibly introduced regressions and get a sense of what works well. There are some tests where details about the hardware you used are of interest to us (e.g. Internet connection, USB2VGA). And of course, we hope it is fun for you to see a page like this grow! Each 10.1.3 Feature has a section where you can comment. There are as well some more generic tests like connecting to the Internet and backwards compatibility tests. The last section has a list of bugs that we think are important to test. The current build available as of today is os358. All of the tests in the page works as well with os357 if you have already downloaded that one. The difference between os357 and os358 is *only* a new WikipediaEN, WikipediaES and a new Write and Paint activity.

New 10.1.3 build os355 for XO-1 and XO-1.5
Hi, a new build in our 10.1.3 cycle is available! This fixes the activity updater where a regression was introduced due to switching to the new dotted activity scheme. Please test this thoroughly. If you have a USB-VGA converter you might want to use the XO to run a presentation. Martin has made several fixes in this area. Last but not least, we have updated certain activities. The new versions of Browse and Write fixes two regressions (good that we have Sam to find these). TurtleArt contain the most changes, feedback is highly appreciated here. From the extra activities that are available on the XO-1.5 Jukebox and Physics contain now the latest versions. Thanks for these new versions to our activity heros, and Mister activity himself - Gonzalo!

Daniel Yes, we do triage bugs for 10.1.3. Until 10.1.3 is out in mid December I don't want to get into F14 triaging. However as I have to read all the bugs anyhow, as you mentioned, I can make sure the version field is set correctly in new incoming bugs (and if I am sure it is a blocker for a F14 release I can set the milestone as well). That should be good enough for now to know what bugs one wants to work on for F14. Is that a good compromise? (The Milestone field I really see as a way to manage the work.)

I disagree. The version field is for formal releases. The reporter of a bug may use Development build as of this date for the current F14 builds. Identify the build version in the keywords field. This has been our practice for the past year. Development build as of this date is ambiguous as we have the 10.1.3 stream and the F14 stream :/ On Mon, Nov 22, 2010 at 10:36:03AM +, Daniel Drake wrote: You could even simplify it a step further: just put all of them in the F14 milestone without thought. As the scope of the release is not yet defined it's not really possible to do a real triage. And knowing what bugs are there could also help us define that scope. I agree, just throw them into the F14 milestone. trac does not allow us to easily manage tickets for multiple release engineering streams. If you sense a fight over which milestone a ticket should be in (10.1.3 vs F14), then I suggest opening a new ticket. Yeah, I guess I have to do that then. The bad thing is that I have to touch tickets then and can not pass that to the reporter by indicating the version number. For anyone working on the F14 builds please make sure to set the milestone then accordingly on the tickets you are touching. At least I could stop the initial request from a reporter setting milestones ;p Regards, Simon ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

My reply was specifically aimed at your statement that the files are removed by powerd when it goes into suspend the next time.

Regards, Tomeu So the GNOME hook for inhibiting suspend seems to be in gnome-session [1][2]. For 0.92 we can look into possibilities on using that. As we already include parts of the gnome session manager code to handle shutdown etc we might be able to switch to the gnome session manager completely. For 0.84 we can do what powerd offers, creating a file based on the pid in /var/run/powerd-inhibit-suspend/ (those are removed by powerd when it goes into suspend the next time). I modified James's example to handle the share and join case (in the base activity class). Quite good results here in terms of usability. I guess one wants to inhibit as well when one invite someone to an activity. Not sure we need to inhibit suspend when we display the neighborhood view.

[ANNOUNCE] Sucrose 0.90 Final Release
Dear Sugar community, Sucrose 0.90 is the latest version of the Sugar learning platform: Sugar promotes collaborative learning through Sugar Activities that encourage critical thinking, the heart of a quality education. Designed from the ground up especially for children, Sugar offers an alternative to traditional “office-desktop” software. Furthermore it provides a flexible and powerful platform for activity developers. Sugar is Free and Open Source Software and consists of Glucose, the base system environment; and Fructose, a set of demonstration activities. This new release contains many new features, performance and code improvements, bug fixes, and translations. Full release notes can be found at: http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/0.90/Notes Thanks everyone for your great contributions!

And some of the issues in network/suspend interaction won't be easy to resolve. I doubt there's much that can be done in Salut about it, should be instead done inside Avahi. I would see how mDNS works, then look for opportunities of tuning knobs in Avahi to speed up rediscovery: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dnsext-mdns-47 I'm going to ask around in case somebody has already thought of it and can provide a shortcut. the laptop knows how long it was suspended, and this information could be made available to a resume hook (which almost exists, but not quite, in powerd) if it would be useful. i.e., a a post-resume script could decide whether to kick the protocols to do something differently, if that was needed. Paul, what do you think about powerd implementing org.freedesktop.UPower ? http://upower.freedesktop.org/docs/UPower.html If so, Lennart could be interested in accepting a patch that makes Avahi listen for Resuming() and that implements the wake-up behavior as specified in http://files.multicastdns.org/draft-cheshire-dnsext-multicastdns.txt . Thanks for that pointer and contacting Lennart. The funny part is: the draft expired yesterday :) After a quick read, looks like it would involve querying the network with the QU bit set so the other nodes can send unicast replies instead of multicast, thus saving bandwidth. Yes the draft talks in section 5.5 Questions Requesting Unicast Responses the case when using unicast responses instead of multicast responses in the resume case. The document states that after the first query multicast responses should be used. Appendix D contains some interesting points why using multicast responses is not inefficient.

After seeing the community help significantly with F11-on-XO development, I'm wondering if we can do something similar for a future release. So, I've taken the first few steps in getting OLPC's technologies rebased on Fedora 14 and Linux v2.6.35. The result has lots of problems, but I figure that publishing the work so far is the first step in getting things fixed. Things are in such an early stage that I'm labelling this as a developers-only release. To name a few: Sugar crashes all the time, the XO-1.5 camera doesn't work, there are some funky graphics bugs on XO-1, no power management, DCON doesn't work right on either laptop, desktop switching lands you at a blank screen. For now, please don't file bugs unless you include patches. And, to take 1 bite at a time out of this huge task, lets ignore all but the biggest sugar issues for now because there is plenty of OS work to be done first. (or alternatively lets take sugar issues directly to SL trac) And the links: 2.6.35 kernel is in git://dev.laptop.org/olpc-2.6 branch olpc-2.6.35 OS build is done from 'f14' branch of olpc-os-builder First released images are at http://build.laptop.org/F14/os1/ Trac is at http://dev.laptop.org/milestone/F14 (basically my immediate TODO), please don't file tickets unless you include patches in these early days Note: I haven't tested those exact images (since Chris @ OLPC built them), so boot-testing them can be the first task for someone. I have been working from the same codebases making local images successfully, so they will probably work (to the extent that things are working). The XO-1.0 build does boot fine here. After installing the latest sugar package [1] I get quite good results. This is very promising. Yay!!!

This would require a number of changes at the OS level and server level, but Sugar would be left untouched, as far as I can think. The standard way of doing this in unix is to use nfs and automount with NIS/LDAP authentication. This would mount the users home directory on login. There's a number of issues that come up with this implementation for the XOs in that wireless would need to connect prior to this and NFS over wifi would be interesting at best due to wifi dropouts. To mitigate that problem you'd probably have to wedge some of the caching filesystems that are being developed to allow the home directory to be cached. Suddenly your getting a very complex solution to fix the problem. Yes, this is true. I obviously used wired connections when using LDAP/NFS. In a lap with fixed equipment this is an easy setup. For the XOs, I agree this could lead to frustration. (even in my case kids very confused because someone has pulled the cables) The other possible alternative to this would be to use something like couchdb to store the contents of the journal and associated config files where you can have a local couchdb that replicates to a remote service. This might be the simpler solution but would obviously require development. Peter Interesting. A solution where you only need to sync twice (start/stop) might be better in the wifi environment.

This would require a number of changes at the OS level and server level, but Sugar would be left untouched, as far as I can think. I think there are two approaches. One is for /home to live on the file server and XOs to access their files via NFS. There may be interesting alternatives to NFS, but I'm not familiar with any of them. The other is to have a working copy of files on the local machine and manually slosh files back and forth, probably using a program to automate things. I don't think either would be great, but both could probably be made to work. Both depend on reasonable network support. Somebody would have to do some experimenting to see how many users the typical WiFi setup can support. [...] Here is another alternative... Give each child their own SD card.

[ANNOUNCE] 0.90 Schedule
Hi, I have filled out the missing pieces in the 0.90 development cycle [1]. I want to highlight some important dates: * 16th August: Feature Freeze * 29th September: The final, new stable release * 27th October: Bug fix release The Sugar 0.89.x schedule is based on the GNOME 2.31.x development cycle [2]. One reason is that Sugar as based on the GNOME stack. Another reason is that GNOME makes sure that their release will be able to be shipped by the major distributions. The dates of the release are made accordingly to the GNOME schedule. As there is not much time left for 0.90 we will focus on stabilizing and landing the features that were left over from the last release. As well as landing all the patches that are currently pending. New Features are handled by the Feature process, as it has been the case in the past [3]. Make sure to read the policy what needs to be done in order that your feature can be accepted [4]. It is a sanity check, so don't be too worried. It is there to help the submitter and maintainer in order to get input from the community and the release manager to track features and their status. The actual code gets reviewed by the module maintainer. If there are any questions, about the policy or the schedule, please ask.

Yes, #1610 contains the default adhoc networks. I asked our #1 reviewer Tomeu to have a look. The mesh-code did land already. When r+ed we just need to package it up and include it in Chris' build. - The ad-hoc UI and interaction model is now similar to what we had on F9/0.82 with mesh for under a tree scenarios. - The code detects whether msh0 is present, and will present the mesh UI; or fall back to ad-hoc. (This means it supports XO-1 but will also work on XO-1.5 once the thinfirm is ready and working with open80211s.) - Even when msh0 is present and it's in mesh mode, if it spots a running ad-hoc network, it can join it; so mesh-enabled XOs can talk with non-mesh-enabled XOs. Right, I have been doing testing here with my XO1.0s and XO1.5s and I am quite happy with the results. As Martin said the XO1.0 can share with the XO1.5 and there is an easy way to collaborate without having infrastructure for the XO1.5s.

Sugar: Wireless scan is slow to happen after sleep with wireless off - first test results
Hi, I tested today if the Sugar reconnection to the wireless network is as fast as the one in GNOME. That for I used two XO 1.5, one running Sugar and one running GNOME, and connected them to the same AP. I suspended both machines by closing the lid. After I reopened the lid both machines connected to the previously connected AP at the same speed. It was easy to verify by eye. I repeated that test a few times and always had the same result. I conclude, that the Sugar-NM implementation is not slower in reconnecting to the previously connected network than the GNOME one.

In general, if the code should go into 0.84 we should make sure it is as less invasive as possible. * Naming: do we agree to name the networks 'Mesh Network [channel name]' even though they are no mesh networks but in order to keep 'backwards compatibility'? No. I'd prefer we lose the word Mesh for these icons. I suggest the word Our or My instead of Mesh. Fine with me. As others have raised this interest before. 'Our' sounds quite good to me. How about 'local'? * I do not save the connection to the nm-config file and don't mark them to autoconnect, so we do not autoconnect when starting Sugar. I think, as an ad-hoc network is not a persistent configuration this makes sense. Yes, certainly. Great. * Should we add an icon for 'mesh-network-connected' to better represent the mesh network we are currently connected to? I don't understand this question, sorry. Oh, maybe you mean that the icons should indicate connection status. Yes! In the same way that access point icons are changed; parentheses either side. Right, that was the idea. * Connection sharing: So far the connections created are 'link-local' connections. What is the plan for sharing an internet connection over an adhoc network? As the XO has only one network device, i guess this is not a common scenario. No opinion. * Remove the 'Create Network' ability of the wireless frame device palette: As we have the default ad-hoc networks we may not need the ability to create adhoc networks anymore. It may be more confusing then of any help, what do others think? Yes, remove it. I will ask Tomeu as he was the original coder of the Feature if we will make the changes upstream, too.
